It's all over but the crying

[cornerofmadness]

Finals are over. I haven't graded them yet as the secretary (only they have the grading software) was gone again (this is part of the work agita I haven't been talking about. She's having health issues and is gone a lot)

What I did have was a lot of students going I didn't get a chance to do the extra credit so can you give me another chance. NO. You had weeks for each o ne so no. Also most of you didn't do the actual work so why in the world should I give you extra extra credit?


I almost finished the other ghost story of mine. I really want it to work. I think it does. It might be too long. Haven't looked. If it is I'll just keep it because I think it's fun.

Also I had a story idea...no more like a character idea. YouTube has been making me giggle. For one I've been listening to a lot of serial killer channels and so what does YouTube recommend for me? 100 top Christian songs. I think it's staging an intervention. What do I do? I listen to another serial killer and after his arrest (in Russia) a young woman decides to write him, marry him and have his kid. Now imagine how that has to work on your head. You mom knowingly, purposely has a serial killer's kid. That might be interesting to mess with.

ETA - the last two posts have lost all formatting, turns out it's DW's auto formatting. I had to disable it just in case someone else is having that issue

I don't understand how people can do that... but I see it with my kids all the time and they're only in middle school. So unfortunately it won't get any better...

Every time I hear this from you or others I can't wrap my head around it: where is the fundamental lack of understanding of such students how school/college/learning things actually work? *tears out hair*

I had smiliar issues with DW formatting after some browser updates. It usually helped to delete the DW cookies and restart the browser to get rid of them.

I'm glad you are almost done with your ghost story and its awesome you are having so much fun with it!

Good to know about the formatting thanks

I don't know how to change it. I know teachers are leaving left right and center because of how education is going
